It's just a lot of flip-flops and sunshine.

4 Things That Are Bound To Change When You Go To School In Florida

Born and raised in New Jersey, there was one thing I could depend on every year... seasons. I know, I know, a very odd thing to think about. Going to school at the University of Miami seasons is something I have yet to see...and it's February. There are a lot of things that are different between February in New Jersey and February in Florida...here are some of them.

1. Starbucks order

My Starbucks order is pretty much the same all year round here. Passion tea lemonade does not seem unreasonable because it's extremely hot out. At home, I had my three drinks, one for spring/summer, one for fall, and one for winter. #RIP to my hot drinks though.

2. Shoes

Today, I am wearing flipflops. Tomorrow I will wear flipflops. Next week, I will be wearing flipflops. Three months ago, I was wearing flipflops. #FreeTheFeet.

3. Clothing

Spot me in my running shorts and frat tank top all day every day because #WhyNot. I don't have to bundle up in leggings with thick socks and the warmest sweater I can find with a huge marshmallow coat.

4. Activity

Yesterday, I sat at the pool, watched the divers, and people play soccer. It's a good life. People are outside a lot more when it's always warm out which to me means that everyone is happier.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
